Breaking bonds in the reactants. (reactants are the stuff you start with). Forming new bonds in the products. (products are the new stuff you make) CH 4 and O CO and H O A Chemical Equation Uses Specific Notation to Show a Chemical Reaction H (g) + O (g) H O(l) Symbols in parentheses to the right of each formula indicate the state or form in which the substance exists. H (g) + O (g) H O(l) reactants products gas gas liquid The reactants ( on the left) and products (on the right) are separated by an arrow that points to the products. A plus sign (+) is used to separate individual reactants and products. Symbols: (aqueous) (g) gas (l) liquid (s) solid (aq) for a substance dissolved in water Chemical Equations Are Balanced Law of Conservation of Matter: Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. Coefficients (numbers) are written to the left of the molecular formula to make the equation obey the conservation Law. There must be the same number of each type of atom on the reactant side and on the product side. H (g) + O (g) H O(l) H (g) + O (g) H O(l) 4.0 g 3.0 g 36.0 g What this law means: Atoms are not lost or gained. The total # of hydrogen and oxygen is the same on the left and right sides of the equation. The mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. 4 H O 4 H & O The coefficient one is never written. When no coefficient appearance before the molecular formula, it is assumed to be one. Coefficients must be integers, not fractions or decimals are allowed. Without coefficients, the equation is said to be unbalanced. 1

Worked Example 8.7 Alka-Seltzer tablets contain aspirin, sodium bicarbonate, and citric acid. When they come into contact with water, the sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) and citric acid (H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 ) react to form carbon dioxide gas, among other products. 3NaHCO 3 (aq) + H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 (aq) 3CO (g) + 3H O(l) + Na 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 (aq) The formation of CO causes the trademark fizzing when the tablets are dropped into a glass of water. An Alka-Seltzer tablet contains 1.700 g of sodium bicarbonate and 1.000 g citric acid. Determine, for a single tablet dissolved in water, (a) which ingredient is the limiting reactant, (b) what mass of the excess reactant is left over when the reaction is complete, and (c) what mass of CO forms. Strategy Convert each of the reactant masses to moles. Use the balanced equation to write the stoichiometric and determine which reactant is limiting. Next, determine the number of moles of excess reactant remaining and the number of moles of CO produced. Finally, use the appropriate es to convert moles of excess reactant and moles of CO to grams. Worked Example 8.7 (cont.) Solution 1 mol NaHCO 1.700 g NaHCO 3 3 = 0.004 mol NaHCO 84.01 g NaHCO 3 3 1.000 g H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 (a) To determine which reactant is limiting, calculate the amount of citric acid necessary to react completely with 0.004 mol sodium bicarbonate. 0.004 mol NaHCO 3 1 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 19.1 g H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 = 0.00505 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 1 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 3 mol NaHCO 3 = 0.006745 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 The amount of H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 required to react with 0.004 mol of NaHCO 3 is more than a tablet contains. Therefore, citric acid is the limiting reactant and sodium bicarbonate is the excess reactant. Worked Example 8.7 (cont.) Solution (b) To determine the mass of excess reactant (NaHCO 3 ) left over, first calculate the amount of NaHCO 3 that will react: 0.00505 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 3 mol NaHCO 3 1 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 = 0.0156 mol NaHCO 3 Thus, 0.0156 mole of NaHCO 3 will be consumed, leaving 0.0046 mole unreacted. Convert the unreacted amount to grams as follows: 0.0046 mol NaHCO 3 84.01 g NaHCO 3 1 mol NaHCO 3 = 0.388 g NaHCO 3 7

Solution (c) To determine the mass of CO produced, first calculate the moles of CO produced from the number of moles of limiting reactant (H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 ) consumed. 3 mol CO 0.00505 mol H 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 Think About It In a problem 1 such mol as H 3this, C 6 H 5it O is 7 a = good 0.0156 idea mol to check CO your work by calculating the amounts of the other products in the reaction. Convert According this amount to the to law grams of conservation as follows: of mass, the combined starting mass of the two reactants (1.700 44.01 g g + CO 1.000 0.0156 mol CO g =.700 g) should equal the sum of the masses of products and = 0.6874 g CO 1 mol leftover CO excess reactant. In this case, the masses of H O and Na 3 C 6 H 5 O 7 produced are 0.815 g and 1.343 g, To summarize respectively. the The results: mass (a) of citric CO acid is the limiting reactant, (b) 0.388 g produced is 0.6874 g [from part (c)] and sodium the amount bicarbonate of excess remains NaHCO unreacted, and (c) 0.6874 g carbon dioxide is 3 is 0.388 g [from part (b)]. The total, produced. 0.815 g + 1.343 g + 0.6874 g + 0.388 g, is.700 g, identical to the total mass of reactants. Theoretical, Actual, and Percent Yield Theoretical Yield is the maximum amount of product, which is CALCULATED using the balanced equation. Because of side reactions and loss of product in handling, you almost never get out 100% of product. The amount isolated from a reaction is called the actual yield. æ actual yield (g) ö % yield = ç 100 è theoretical yield (g) ø Calculating Percent Yield Suppose you have prepared cookie dough to make 5 dozen cookies. The phone rings and you answer. While you talk, a sheet of 1 cookies burns, and you have to throw them out. The rest of the cookies you make are okay. What is the percent yield of edible cookies? Theoretical yield: 60 cookies possible Actual yield: 48 cookies to eat Simple Percent Yield Problem If the reaction of ethylene with water to form ethanol has a calculated theoretical yield of 3 g of ethanol, what is the percent yield if only 15 g of ethanol are actually formed? Percent yield = actual yield (g) theoretical yield (g) x 100% Percent yield: 48 cookies x 100% = 80.% yield 60 cookies = 15 g 3 g x 100% = 65% More Difficult Percent Yield Problem A sample of HgO weighing 7. g was heated.

Worked Example 8.8 Aspirin, acetylsalicylic acid (C 9 H 8 O 4 ), is the most commonly used pain reliever in the world. It is produced by the reaction of salicylic acid (C 7 H 6 O 3 ) and acetic anhydride (C 4 H 6 O 3 ) according to the following equation: HgO(s) Hg(l) + O (g) æ actual yield of Hg (g) ö % yield = ç 100 = 5.95 è theoretical yield of Hg (g) ø? æ = 5.95 ö ç 100 = 88.9% è 6.69 ø C 7 H 6 O 3 salicylic acid + C 4 H 6 O 3 C 9 H 8 O 4 + acetic anhydride acetylsalicylic acid HC H 3 O acetic acid In a certain aspirin synthesis, 104.8 g of salicylic acid and 110.9 g of acetic anhydride are combined. Calculate the percent yield if 105.6 g of aspirin are produced. Strategy Convert reactant grams to moles, and determine which is the limiting reactant. Use the balanced equation to determine the moles of aspirin that can be produced and convert to grams for the theoretical yield. Use this and the actual yield given to calculate the percent yield. Worked Example 8.8 (cont.) Solution 1 mol C 104.8 g C 7 H 6 O 3 7 H 6 O 3 138.1 g C 7 H 6 O = 0.7588 mol C 7 H 6 O 3 3 110.9 g C 4 H 6 O 3 1 mol C 4 H 6 O 3 10.09 g C 4 H 6 O 3 = 1.086 mol C 4 H 6 O 3 Because the two reactants combine in a 1:1 mole ratio, the reactant present in the smallest number of moles (in this case, salicylic acid) is the limiting reactant. According to the balanced equation, one mole of aspirin is produced for every mole of salicylic acid consumed. Worked Example 8.8 (cont.) Solution Thus, the theoretical yield is 136.7 g. If the actual yield is 105.6, the percent yield is % yield = 105.6 g 136.7 g 100% = 77.5% Think About It Make sure you have used the proper es and remember that percent yield can never exceed 100 percent. Therefore, the theoretical yield of aspirin is 0.7588 mol. We convert this to grams using the of aspirin: 0.7588 mol C 9 H 8 O 4 180.15 g C 9 H 8 O 4 1 mol C 9 H 8 O 4 = 136.7 g C 9 H 8 O 4 9
